Contar para compromiso

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Advertising / Public Relations
El siguiente es un diálogo a través de correo electrónico. Las dos personas son de Puerto Rico. Necesito ayuda con la expresión "contar para compromiso". Gracias.

-Esto lo vi y me pareció GENIAL. Resulta que en [name of shows] tienen un segmento que se llama [name], en el que el mismo [show host's name] explica los avances tecnológicos que tienen ciertos productos. Hasta el momento han hecho de carros y les pregunté sobre hacer algo así pero para [name of product]. Incleíble pero me dijeron que sí, ya saben que [name of company] tiene a [name of show] casi comprado.

- Entiendo que si sería bueno,pero hay que acomodarlo dentro del presupuesto.
Cuenta para compromiso?

- Sí, cuenta para compromiso. Sobre la coordinación ellos me dijeron que tenían el lunes 27 de oct a las 11am espacio para que el equipo de producción se mueva a [name of company], tendríamos que contestarles si podemos a esa hora y ese día.

is is definitely on?

Since you ask: What is it they're trying to say though?, this is one way to say in informal English. Literally, "Does it coun as a committment? (to go ahead with the spot)."

Is it open for our acceptance?

I understand "compromiso" as the acceptance of the artistic engagement/booking by the two colleagues speaking
